Can someone please walk me through this exercise.

Question about the task

Under discussion

After hours of trying I think this is a good basic setup for how the problem is supposed to be solved. If someone can walk me through how to complete it that would be awesome!

Write a program that:
1. reads a number N (must be greater than 0) from the console
2. reads N numbers from the console
3. Displays the maximum of the N entered numbers.

Requirements:

The program should read the numbers from the keyboard.
The program must display a number on the screen.
The class must have a public static void main method.
Don't add new methods to the Solution class.
The program should display the maximum of the N entered numbers.
The program should not display anything if N is less than or equal to 0.

package com.codegym.task.task05.task0532; import java.io.*; /* Task about algorithms */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); int N = Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine()); int max = 0; //write your code here if (N>0) { for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++) { } System.out.println(max); } } }

BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
        int maximum = 0;
        int N = Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine());//reads a number N
        if (N > 0) {
            maximum = Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine());
            for (int i = 1; i < N; i++) {   //length is N
                maximum = Math.max(maximum, Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine()));
            }
            System.out.println(maximum);
        }
